GPS Server Application

All,

I'm working on a GPS Server application for the Vogue. From a high level perspective it is an app you can run on your phone and from any Windows computer and google earth, can see you position remotely. Ultimately I want this to become a recovery tool. Let say if you lose your phone, you'll be able to launch google earth and locate it.

To Implement:
- Dynamic IP address updater. Sends an update *somewhere* so you don't have to use the HDR debug menu to get your IP.

Done:
- GPS Server. You can connect (if you know the IP address of your phone via the HDR debug screen) and can NMEA data from the GPS.
- Google Earth connectivity: Available though a open source tool called com0com and tcp0com.

I need some help though. Once the screen is turned off the phone stops transmitting GPS data. Is there a way to bypass this?
